How can you leverage the proven power of writing in your school or classroom?  In Writing to Learn, you will discover what nonfiction writing is, what educational research says about its use, and specific ways to apply writing strategies tomorrow.  Our teacher Dr. Angela Peery, creator of The Center’s Writing to Learn seminars and author of the book Writing Matters in Every Classroom, will share compelling research behind employing nonfiction writing and will lead you in activities which illustrate exactly how you can implement writing across the curriculum.  After participating in this interactive learning activity, you will be ready to explore the power of writing, no matter what grade level or subject you teach.  If you’re an administrator or instructional coach, you will be ready to support teachers in their efforts to increase nonfiction writing to enhance academic achievement.
